Amazing....so much fun!! Cannot wait to comeback again - Michelle
What a lovely experience on the wine tram, friendly staff, punctual and would recommend this experience to anyone visiting Franschhoek. - Shane
The bus and tram experience was exceptional for our family visitors. There were two individual bookings made, initially one group bus first and the other group tram first. On arrival your front desk assisted by placing both bookings together on a bus first for which we were very appreciative. Our group included visitors from Costa Rica, USA, England, Italy and locals. A great experience enhanced by your friendly and efficient staff. - Tony
Bus and Tram were well organised. This was our second time doing this and it did not disappoint. Staff were friendly as per usual and extremely helpful and the bus and tram were more or less on time. - Andreas
We really enjoyed the wine tram through Franschhoek, very convenient, great organization and amazing vineyards! Can highly recommend! - Maike
